Permanent Exhibition of Religion Art

Reviewed By marina4musketeers - Zagreb, Croatia

Precious collection of Zadar gold and silver. Very worth to visit during your stay in Croatia. Benedictine nuns from St Mary Convent take care about it, They are very helpful, talkative and provide a lot of interesting facts and details about artifacts. They even has small souvenir shop where where visitors can by homemade products produced by nuns: book markers made of dried flowers are my favourite. Exibition is on the way to Sea Organ, don't miss it.

The exhibition is quite worth seeing - both the different finds and the display of exhibition. A highlight is the glassblowing workshop you can observe from morning to noon where glass art for the gift shop is created.
